New inoculants on maize silage fermentation [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2014
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of bacterial inoculants at two inoculation rates on chemical and biological characteristics of maize silage. The treatments consisted of two inoculating rates (5 and 6 log cfu g-1 of forage) for each strain of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) identified as Lactobacillus buchneri, L.

Temporal Dynamics of Soil Organic Carbon Contents in Long‐Term Monitored Arable Sites in Lower Saxony, Germany

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Temporal changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) contents in agricultural soils are variable, and underlying drivers are not sufficiently understood. Aim The objectives were to describe the long‐term dynamics of SOC contents at 41 sites in Lower Saxony, Germany, and to analyze the relationships between estimated long‐term changes of ...

Use of natural ensiling additives with tropical grasses: Physicochemical properties, in vitro fermentation characteristics, and microbial community diversity indices

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Improving feed quality, availability, and cost‐effectiveness is a big challenge for livestock to ensure animal‐derived food for nutritional security. The aim of the study was to find out how some natural ensiling additives affect physicochemical properties, proximate composition, microbial population, in vitro fermentation ...

Silage Maize Identification Using a Temporal Difference-Based Model with Sentinel-2 Data: Insights from a Harvest-Based and Temporally Transferable Approach

Agronomy
In response to the limited research on silage maize classification in China and the lack of data support for refined agricultural and livestock management, this study proposes a Temporal Difference-based Silage Maize Identification Model (TempDiff-SMID ...

Bromatological characterization of maize genotypes for silage [PDF]

Acta Scientiarum. Animal Sciences, 2012
Since every year public and private companies bring many genotypes of maize to the market, the suitability of these genotypes for the production of silage should be evaluated. Current study evaluates the agronomic and chemical characteristics of early-normal cycle maize genotypes as well as assesses whether the genetic bases (single, double, and triple

Sensorial and nutritional qualities of muscles from cross‐bred Salers heifers raised on mid‐mountain pasture

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigated the effects of crossbreeding, finishing system, and muscle type on carcass characteristics, intramuscular fat (IMF), image‐based IMF estimation, fatty acid composition, and meat quality in beef heifers. Charolais × Salers (C × S) and Angus × Salers (A × S) crossbred heifers were finished either on pasture or ...

Whey as an Additive in Maize Silage

Food Science and Technology
This study evaluates the effect of including whey at different inclusion rates on the chemical composition and mineral profile of maize silage. Five whey inclusion rates (0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, and 10% w/w of fresh forage) were tested in a completely randomized design with five replicates. After 80 days of ensiling, samples were analyzed for moisture, dry
